The Rise and Fall of Resource Nationalism
With sharply falling prices for oil and other commodities over the second half of 2008, the geostrategic and industrial implications of resource nationalism are rapidly changing. In geostrategic terms, several regimes that have pursued resource nationalistic policies, sometimes described as use of the ‘energy weapon’, will have to revisit these policies. With the global economy slowing and commodity demand falling, a sustained period of weaker pr…
The Return of State Capitalism
After the Soviet collapse, the dynamism and market power of the United States, Japan, and Western Europe established the dominance of a liberal economic mode fuelled by private wealth, private investment and private enterprise. Yet, over the past several years, public wealth, public investment, and public enterprise have made a remarkable comeback. An era of state capitalism has dawned, the natural by-product of a global economy which will increa…
The Siloviki in Putin's Russia
Little is known about the siloviki, commonly but misleadingly described as a group of current and former intelligence officers from Putin's hometown of St. Petersburg. Yet, its members, interests, relationships, and influence are helping shape Russia as its 2008 presidential elections approach
South Africa's Troubled Success Story
Populist resurgence in Latin America
Latin American voters will soon cast ballots in national elections in several countries. Some argue that the region is undergoing a uniform political shift to the left, that mistrust of neo-liberal economics and US foreign policy has united these states in a populist wave of reaction against both, and that this trend will bind these states to countries outside the region, undermining US interests. This generalisation does not withstand country-sp…

During the era of glasnost’, nationalist and prodemocratic movements regularly attracted Armenia’s best and brightest, such as the veteran dissidents who stood at the forefront of mass demonstrations supporting Mikhail Gorbachev’s reforms. When the Soviet …

Nazarbaev and the north
Of all the former Soviet republics, Kazakhstan has what may well be the most untenable interethnic predicament ‐ an ethnic Russian population that is nearly as large as the ethnic Kazakh population. The Russians, moreover, constitute a majority of the population in the northern part of the country, which borders the Russian republic. Having the unenviable task of nation‐building in an increasingly fragmented multi‐ethnic environment, Nazarbaev ha…
